Old Platform

Here you will find classics of Oriental Studies as well as current scientific publications that you can read in Open Access or save as PDF files.

All titles are provided with a permanent link and can therefore be referenced on a long-term basis. They are also listed in interregional catalogues.

Over the next few months, the repository will gradually be given a new technical infrastructure. In the future, the entire inventory will be switched to Share_it – our instance of the free document server DSpace.
